Horse manure

Hello,

I was wondering if members would be interested in well rotted horse manure?

We have two bays of well rotten manure from our horses. It has been coverd with carpet and has a high worm content. We have run out of space and we were about to have it taken away when i thought of alerting gardeners in the area if they would like to have it, as unfortunatly now because of EU regulations farmers have a whole lot of paper work if they want to import manure so it costs them too much and the companies that take muck away quite often take it to land fill as a result.

We do need the space very quickly really within the next couple of weeks. It would be free to self pick up all we ask is that people mind the horses and shut gates etc. it is has easy access (on yard not in field) I know some of your members maybe elderly or disabled od not have transport we do have a horse trailer which we could deliver sacks of it. but unfortunaly would need to charge for time and fuel.

we are in radwell just a short way from milton ernest garden centre.

Please feel free to contact me on 07872628268

Manure is available all year however these two bays are needed so we will be making arrangements to have them removed very shortly so plese contact me asap if you know of anyone interested.

ps the manure hsa a high dropping content, and the bedding used was wood shavings and flax which makes really good mulch according to our neighbours (who are full to the brim already!)

Many thanks

Tess

    Hi everybody, I’ve now moved out of the area. However I have the number here for a lady called marilyn who lives in Great Barford. She will more than likely have manure available and said she is happy for people to contact her direct. I hope this helps. Otherwise I suggest putting up a card in your local saddlery asking for manure.

    Hi Karyn, thanks for your enquiry. I’m actually a riding instructor and can usually source manure easily. currenly i have 100% manure available from the summer paddocks which requires collecting near the radwell fishing lakes. access is fairly easy but you do need to bring your own shovel to scoop it up. This manure is best for digging in for fertilising.

    Bedford riding school also have manure mixed with shavings the shavings take some time to rot so are still entire so make a fairly good mulch or top dressing.

    please contact me direct on 07707085337 or 07872628268 although soon will no longer be using the later number. many thanks

    Hello

    I am sure that you have been able to get rid of the manure you were giving away in Feb, but I was wondering iof this is something you would have on a regular basis, as I would be interested if you were still giving it away.

    Many Thanks
    Karyn
